Hello! For this question, we will have to subtract fractions. In order to do this, we will have to convert the fractions into the same denominator. We do this by finding the LCD of the two numbers. In other words, we find the LCM. The LCM of 5 and 4 is 20. 4/5 converts to 16/20, and 1/4 converts to 5/20. Let's subtract these numbers like we would regular numbers. 6 16/20 - 3 5/20 is 3 11/20. There. Jordan bought 3 11/20 yards more pink ribbon than purple ribbon.

For every 4 gallons of green paint he uses 3 gallons of blue paint. Drag the correct number of each type of paint into the box t

Inga [223]

Answer:

Amount of green color used =

$\dfrac{64}{7}\text{ gallons}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Every 4 gallons of green paint is mixed with 3 gallons of blue paint. to make a particular shade.

Ratio of green color to blue paint can be calculated as:

$=\dfrac{\text{Amount of green color}}{\text{Amount of blue color}}\\\\=\dfrac{4}{3}$

Amount of shade = 16

Amount of green paint = $4x$

Amount of blue paint = $3x$

Thus, we can write:

$4x + 3x = 16\\7x = 16\\\\x = \dfrac{16}{7}$

Amount of green color used =

$4x = 4\times \dfrac{16}{7} = \dfrac{64}{7}\text{ gallons}$

Amount of blue paint used =

$3x = 3\times \dfrac{16}{7} = \dfrac{48}{7}\text{ gallons}$
